Buying pressure eased off…
TRX has been on a bullish rally, since 27 April. However, bears took advantage of a general market correction to halt the bullish momentum at the $0.071 resistance level. This led to a 5% dip in its price over the past 48 hours.
A look at the four-hour chart showed that the short-term price action favored the bears, as TRX posted multiple bearish candles in a row. Zooming out to the daily timeframe showed a bearish order block confluence at the $0.071 resistance level.
The evidence at hand pointed to caution for both bulls and bears. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) stood way below the neutral line at 34.71. This indicated the lack of significant momentum for TRX at press time. However, the OBV was on a strong upward trend but at press time, the OBV did fall to 76.13.
The next move for Tron remained unclear. Buyers can wait for a retest of the support level with a daily candle close above it. Alternatively, bears could see more short opportunities, if the price successfully breaks the $0.067 support level.
